When she and William appeared on A Berry Merry Christmas, on BBC One in December, Kate Middleton confessed one of Louis' first words was "Mary" - because of the family's love of the chef.

Kate said: “One of Louis’ first words was ‘Mary’, because right at his height are all my cooking books in the kitchen bookshelf.

“And children are really fascinated by faces, and your face is all over your cooking books and he would say ‘That’s Mary Berry’.

"So he would definitely recognise you if he saw you today.”

The Christmas special saw William and Kate host a party, with a menu designed by Mary for charity staff working to support others over the festive period.

After filming, Mary described Kate as a “normal mum” who is “just like you and I”, as she appeared on Lorraine.

She called Kate and William a “really lovely” couple who “love each other” and want to do “all they can” for Britain.
